%N Cogrowth sequence for Richard Thompson's group F with the standard generating set x_0, x_1.

%C a(n) is the number of reduced words in {x_0,x_0^{-1},x_1,x_1^{-1}}^* of length 2*n equal to the identity in F.

%e The length of the shortest relation in the group presentation is 10, there are 20 distinct cyclic permutations of this word and its inverse, and each one is a reduced trivial word of length 2*5, so a(5)=20.
